Just big enough for squirrels and stuff.  Certainly not big enough for bear or deer.   :yike: :yike: :tup: :tup: :chuckle: :chuckle:

I really want one.. shoot a 1000 grain bullet out of a handgun has to be a rush!!!!!!!!!!!!  Can you tell I like big bore handguns???   :chuckle:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

That guy must be really good at controlling recoil.
What would life be without the thrill of the hunt?

Is that pic really of a 600 nitro express case? Looks way big to me. Bigger than 0.62 bullet diameter and 3 inches long.

I took that photo from the Guns.com article linked in the first post.  I just went back to see if there was any text with it and it's gone  :dunno:

I Googled it and saw that pic as well. I just think it looks a bit bigger than the measurements I saw in Wikipedia. Unless the guy holding it has little person hands. Lol. Either way 600 ne in a pistol is a heck of a handful!

I had a 19oz 450 ti that would pull the bullets from the recoil....that was pushing a 365 at 850fps.....I hope that gun weighs mucho.

that looks more like a 4-bore shell.

but if you want big, 2-bore is the real deal!

i bought my dad a 2-bore case and bullet (bullet is a clean pound of brass) and a loaded 4-bore round for his collection a couple of years ago.  helluva paperweight/conversation starter!

The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

The recoil really doesn't look bad at all. It still looks like a handful though!

The recoil didn't really look all that bad considering it's a NE600.  I've got a 500 S&W w/4in barrel and i'm not so sure it doesn't recoil just as bad.  All I know is it's a handful to shoot and damn fun too.  :)
